West Deptford's Willow Woods appeal rescheduled

WEST DEPTFORD TWP. — The township committee will hold a rent increase appeal hearing for the owners of the Willow Woods mobile home complex next month.

In September, the owners of the development — the Carlyle Group — asked for a water and sewer tax pass through, a water and sewer bill pass through to the park's residents, and a Consumer Price Index increase of 2.6 percent — hiking residents' rent up between $18 and $22 per month.

Now, the Carlyle Group is appealing to the township committee after their request was denied by the rent control board.

The hearing is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 11 at 10 a.m. in the municipal building.
